-Headline of the day-
"Woman exchanges sex for gasoline."
34 year-old Angela Eversole was arrested at a Fort Wright, Kentucky Days Inn on "suspicion of selling her body for a $100 gas card."
Completely clueless boyfriend Anthony Schaffner told a local TV station, "She's wrong for cheating on me, but that's what she was doing, so far as that goes. She definitively (sic) isn't a prostitute. I know that for sure, because she's cheating on me."
Dude, she is a prostitute, "definitively" or not. It's not like you need some sort of certification. The client, Kenneth Nowak, 50, was charged with promoting prostitution. Eversole has been charged with -- among other things -- "doing business without an occupational license."
Holy shit, I guess you do need some sort of certification. People are saying that gas costs and arm and a leg, but I guess some people are charging tits and ass. (Raw Story)
-Barack Obama, Uber Alles-
The right wing magazine American Spectator warns us about Barack Obama. Is he a "secret Muslim?" No. Is he a "secret Marxist?" No.
Neither of those common lies have gained enough ground to make any difference, so former Reagan White House political director Jeffrey Lord thinks up a new one. Obama's a secret fascist.
That's a black Nazi. Or something. It's not really extremely clear. Anyway, it's a lead pipe cinch he's a-gonna shut down right wing talk radio, outlaw SUVs and air conditioning, and make it illegal to dispute global warming. How this is fascism is beyond me -- Mussolini never outlawed big ol' honkin' trucks -- but there ya go.
What freedoms will next be targeted with that deadliest trademark of an Obamalander — moral superiority? What do we have when the sole purpose of the government as run by the chilling principles of Obamaland is to “use the political process” to remove freedoms large and small one by one by one?
Someone needs to speak it plainly.
The word is fascism.
Seems to me the guy who's been removing "freedoms large and small one by one by one" has been some fella named Bush.
When are you going to get around to freaking out over that? And, when a Republican does it, is it magically not fascism?
On the off-chance that Jeffrey Lord will read this, why don't you get back to me and clear that one up, OK? (Think Progress)
